Is the schedule out and does anything else happen in vegas (poker series) during this time?

According to their TD, the schedule should be out early next week.

Cheers!!

WSOPc is in town in that timeframe and the Venetian schedule is typically complimentary.

Complementary...EE ; sorry just had to do it I will hide now.

any of you guys playing a $200 superstack at 7pm in previous series? if so how long do they roughly run?

About 1:00am, but it obviously depends on a number of factors.

And what is up with playing down to 5% in some of the multi day events? Have they done this in the past? If so whats the feedback?

I don't think they've done a tourney like this in the past, and the $250 NLH event appears to be the only one in the DSE IV. I spoke with Tommy and he said it will have day 1 payments of $400-800 depending upon finish and all players who make day 2 will be guaranteed $1K. This format is similar to the Aria WPT500, though I believe Tommy is leaning against having it be Best Stack Forward.

In any case, the idea is they need to play down to a smaller percentage in order to accommodate the size of the day 2 field. Tommy said he will be updating the structure sheet soon with more details.

The playdown format definitely makes for a longer day 1 (probably something on the order of 1 to 2 hours longer than the normal, based on my experience in the Aria event). However, its nice to be guaranteed money before you get to day 2. And I'm not really sure there is a good alternative for a tourney with such a big guarantee compared to the buy-in, unless they want to extend it another day (which isn't something neither the casino, nor many players, are keen to do).

Anyhow look out for the updated structure sheet for more info, or you can reach Tommy at Thomas.Larosa@sands.com or @VenetianTD.

any poker room codes for this?

They're on the pdf.

Does anyone know how long the survivors last to be in the money for events #7 and #11?

Per TD Tommy:

The $400 Survivor I would say 8-9 hours
The $300 Survivor I would say 6-7 hours

Thanks! I appreciate it.

Does anyone play the nightlys? how are the turnouts? I'm interested in the $200 bounty when I first arrive and was wondering if that would be better than the Aria nightly.

Thanks
